Hailey spent the day job shadowing me at PLD--I thought it might be boring for her to watch me email and draw. Hence, I decided to take her to The Seattle Design Center to look for fabric swatches for the studio design, do some "notebook" market research and to of course...stop by Nordstrom to try on some pretty shoes...

At the design center...

looking at pretty wallpaper designs..

And the pretty red shoes at Nordstrom...

Our favorite find of the day was this wallpaper design by The Designer's Guild. I'm thinking this will look BEAUTIFUL on one wall in the studio.

I am so excited to see these designs online at rei.com for women's yoga tanks! They are really beautiful and were developed with hand sketched flowers and watercolor! I worked on these designs for REI last fall and am now inspired to draw with ink again. I think this may have been my last hand drawn project! Oh my! I have a hidden talent for drawing flowers (sans computer) that I will be sharing with the world soon! You have only seen my graphic work to date...There are always surprises to come! ;)

Enjoy your week! And maybe get one of these fab tanks! I think I'll order one!
